Meet Dr. Larry D. Perry
Passion for Patient Care
Dr. Larry has been a chiropractor since 1984, and his passion for helping patients live their best lives has only grown. Many people come to us as a last resort, when nothing else has helped them. They’re desperate and nearly hopeless—and when we can relieve their pain by correcting the underlying condition, the transformation in their lives is the reward and motivation that keeps Dr. Larry excited about coming to work each day.
A Childhood Goal
As a child, Dr. Larry had severe asthma, and no treatments had worked. When he was 8 years old, his parents took him to a chiropractor, and finally improved. Dr. Larry says chiropractic was the only thing that ever helped him, so it was the only thing he ever wanted to be.
Originally from the Huntington area, Dr. Larry graduated from Buffalo High School before attending Marshall University. He earned his Doctor of Chiropractic from Palmer College of Chiropractic in September 1984, and came home to practice with his mentor, Dr. Merlin Zelm. He purchased the practice from Dr. Zelm in 1989 and moved Perry Chiropractic to a new location right across the street in 1995—and that’s where you can still find us today!
Always Learning
Staying abreast of scientific advances and new information about chiropractic is important to Dr. Larry, and he regularly attends educational training and seminars. He has extensive post-graduate training in personal injury care, soft tissue work and whiplash injuries.
He is also committed to learning everything he can about your situation, and he will listen carefully and ask questions to get to the bottom of the problem. Patients often remark that Dr. Larry is the first doctor to ever listen to them, and then asked to hear even more.
